* I'm still struggling physically and the pain is bad, but it's at a level where I can shuffle around accomplishing things, so I went for forage, pharmacy, library, bank, and to pay the small bill downtown. I am burning money way too fast on things like meds, cat litter, and gas. (I pulled a ten at the bank so I can get gas this weekend.) Really, I need to do another auction round, since I've very little left for second biggest bill if I leave enough in for insurance autowithdraw. Meds were stupid expensive this month. A bunch of my things are now on three month supply which means they all come due larger and at once. Sigh. Not today. Today I'm still struggling with Tuesday's headache on top of extra chronic pain, the hip and jaw thing, Wednesday's left over queaze, and low spoon count. On the upside, I did clear a lot of this week's news before bed, though I was left with a bunch of random links to wade through, plus today's.
